Back Issues

beauty, vol 21, no 4

The concept of beauty is ambiguous and raises many questions about how this concept informs practices in landscape architecture. Check out the Winter 2019 issue of Landscapes I Paysages where we explore the concept of beauty, from a variety of different perspectives.

reconciliation, vol 21, no 3

In the Fall 2019, Reconciliation issue of Landscapes I Paysages, read how David Thomas, other Indigenous designers and landscape architects, as well as many firms across the country are discussing the applying the concepts of reconciliation in their projects and practices.

LO! Carbon, vol 21, no 1

Ten years. Is it enough time to change societal behaviour, to change our behaviour as landscape architects, to make the move to low carbon in our projects, in our designs? There’s hope out there, but we can do more, as we uncover in this Spring 2019 issue of LANDSCAPES I PAYSAGES.

democracy, vol 20, no 3

Big take-away from LANDSCAPES I PAYSAGES Fall 2018 Democracy issue: When creating a space, landscape architects design to meet users’ needs – but, in reality, it’s those users who take the space where it needs to go.

excellence, vol 20, no 2

Check out LP’s Awards of Excellence issue, with a stellar project on every page. Variety is the name of the game, from the complex and imaginative planning for Breathe, Edmonton’s green network strategy, to the ecologically sensitive installation of 287 steps through the rugged terrain of the Parliament Hill escarpment. (It’s like climbing a 12-storey building!)

silos, vol 20, no 1

The words on the benches and earthworks emerging on the hilly turf at Fort Needham Memorial Park are few, but they are puzzling – even frightening. “Guncotton.” “Mono-chlorbenzol.” “Trinitrotoluol (TNT).” A century after the Halifax explosion, memories of Canada’s largest explosion are embedded in the landscape. Experiential graphic artists of Form :Media, together with landscape architects of Ekistics Planning & Design, believe in the power of the provocative detail in the landscape, because “discovery can be as effective as a history book.”
